Critical and reflective thinking

I think our criminal justice system should be more rehabilitative. When someone commits a crime there tends to be a motive regarding the ones that go to jail, it might be revenge or money but that’s things that over time could be prevented. I think some criminals do deserve more severe punishments buts the system should be working on making it lower not adding to it with more punishment. Rehabilitation can lead to more people changing less crimes when they are released, sets an example for others.

I can analyze evidence to make judgments by going back to past information that has lined up with things that match the prompt. One thing I thought about is the Menendez brothers how they turned their life around in prison getting degrees and paint walls. When they were in there they set examples for others and will be able to walk society not easier but a bit more caught up.
